I'm still trying to comprehend that Mr. Perry is gone.  He was such a source of joy at Slover Library. He was among the first to make me feel welcome when I first started at the library. I looked forward to seeing him around the building. I will miss our chats about our families and love of food, especially seafood. I'm so thankful that I got to know him in the short time that I was privileged to have. His loss is felt deeply at the library.

It feels so unreal that Ricky's gone. I will miss him at Slover Library. He always treated us like family and brought so much joy to the workplace. I will especially miss his jokes and his playful attitude to life. I feel blessed to have gotten to know him.

Ricky will be sorely missed at Slover Library. His smile and laughter always brightened my day. He loved to talk about his family. We had many conversations about our families and grandchildren. I am unable to attend the funeral and Celebration of Life. I will be out of town. But, please know you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
